Welcome to Gameweek 32, RotoBallers! This is our third year covering FPL, and we are bringing you more coverage than ever. We publish two weekly articles: a staff roundtable preview and our weekly rankings. Then, once a month, we have our newest report, The Watchlist, which reviews the previous month and looks ahead to the upcoming fixtures.
Thirty-one gameweeks down, seven to go. Gameweek 31 ended on Thursday, and we have another quick turnaround ahead of Gameweek 32. We saw Bukayo Saka, Erling Haaland, and Kevin De Bruyne all get well-deserved breaks from the action in the midweek games. However, it's doubtful that the rotation roulette is over. FPL managers should look to build a strong bench over the next few weeks as the fixtures become more critical and more congested.
The Fantasy Premier League Gameweek 32 deadline is 6:00 a.m. EDT on Saturday, April 6, when Crystal Palace hosts Man City. Also, look out for the rest of our excellent soccer coverage, as the squad gets you all set for every English Premier League, Major League Soccer, and UEFA Champions League slate from a DFS and betting perspective.
I seldom play #EPL #DFS. But when I do, I make sure I check out my @RotoBaller buddies @EuanFPL and @df_solutions

Fantasy Premier League - Gameweek 32 Rankings
Our weekly rankings highlight players who could be worth a punt in your Fantasy Premier League squad. While the rankings will be filled with familiar names, a low-owned player with an easy fixture will rise up the one-week charts. For each gameweek, we will provide our top 15 goalkeepers, defenders, midfielders, and forwards. These can also be applied as DFS rankings for your weekend contests.
Gameweek 31 Fantasy Premier League High Scorers
- Goalkeeper: Mark Flekken, Brentford - 11 points
- Defender: Kurt Zouma, West Ham - 10 points
- Midfielder: Cole Palmer, Chelsea & Phil Foden, Man City - 20 points
- Forward: Cody Gakpo, Liverpool, Alexander Isak, Newcastle, & Chris Wood, Nottingham Forest - 8 points
FPL Goalkeepers - Gameweek 32 Rankings
- Murara Neto has a great chance to haul in Gameweek 32 versus Luton. The Hatters are 17th in expected goals (xG) this season but rose through the ranks regarding total shots. To keep a long story short, they like to take bad shots. This is good news for goalkeepers. As a result, a clean sheet with some bonus points could be in the cards for Bournemouth's shot-stopper.

FPL Defenders - Gameweek 32 Rankings
- Man City is suddenly light along their back line, providing secure minutes for Rúben Dias, Josko Gvardiol, and Manuel Akanji. Gvardiol is the most attacking of that trio, but he hasn't had any goals or assists in his name over the last six games. In fact, over the previous six games, the Croatian defender's 0.23 NPxGI is 20th among defenders. It feels like regression to the mean is on the way, so now may be a great time to jump on the City defender.
Ranking | Name | Team | Opp. | Pred. Pts | Clean Sheet % | Goal % |

FPL Midfielders - Gameweek 32 Rankings
- Phil Foden was the hat-trick hero on Wednesday night, but he could be the next victim of Pep Roulette. Erling Haaland and Kevin De Bruyne sat out the Aston Villa fixture, but should be back for the lunchtime clash against Crystal Palace. FPL managers shouldn't be trying to sell Phil Foden by any means, but I would be a bit wary of buying him ahead of Gameweek 32 as Man City prepares for a vital Champions League battle with Real Madrid next week.

FPL Forwards - Gameweek 32 Rankings
- In recent weeks, Erling Haaland has been quiet compared to his usual lofty standards. The Norwegian striker obliterated FPL last season, but an injury and a slight downtick in form have him trailing Ollie Watkins by over 30 points this year. He's racked up 21.5 xG in 23 Premier League games but is stuck on 18 goals at the moment. A player of his talent won't stay silent for long, and it would take a courageous FPL manager to go against Haaland down the stretch.
Ranking | Name | Team | Opp | Pred. Pts | Goal % | Assist % |
1 | Haaland | MCI | CRY | 6.55 | 56% | 22% |
